Over the course of Sunday’s game against the Toronto Raptors, Bradley Beal lifted the Washington Wizards.
His 21 points in the fourth quarter alone — including a game-tying 3-pointer with less than 30 seconds left — helped force overtime, erasing a 23-point defect from earlier in the afternoon.
But Beal’s heroics weren’t enough.
Star forward Kawhi Leonard lifted the Raptors to a 140-138 victory in double overtime, grabbing a pivotal offensive rebound that set up a go-ahead 3-pointer from center Serge Ibaka.
Beal finished with a season-high 43 points, 10 rebounds and 15 assists.
